.FFD File Extension

An FFD file is a game save created by FATE, an action-adventure role-playing game published by WildTangent. It contains a record of a player's progress, including the player's items and character stats. Players use FFD files to resume their saved games.

FATE is a single-player dungeon crawler in which players fight monsters, complete quests, and collect items in procedurally-generated dungeons. WildTangent released FATE in 2005.

When a FATE player saves their game, the game creates a corresponding FFD file. FFD files are numbered in the order they were created. For example, a player's first saved game will be named 0.ffd, the second 1.ffd, and so on. FATE typically stores FFD files in the game's SAVE directory.

You can use an FFD file to resume the saved game it contains in FATE (Windows). To do so, first place the file in FATE's SAVE directory. Then, open FATE, select Continue Game, and select the saved game your FFD file contains.

You can also use various FFD editing tools, such as FATE Save Editor, to modify the save data an FFD file contains. For example, FATE Save Editor allows you to edit your character's stats, skills, items, and spells.

File format developed by Contivo (now Liaison Technologies); similar to an .XSLT file but defines transformation rules for mapping non-XML binary data into an XML dataset; saved in an XML format and can be created using a text editor or an IDE such as Liaison Technologies Analyst.

FFD files are also used for XML translation by IBM's WebSphere DataPower SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) appliances. The application is no longer available.

Log file generated by FFDDumper, a Microsoft SharePoint Server program used for debugging document search results; saved in a plain text format and contains the results of a document being "crawled" by SharePoint's FAST document processing engine.

FFD files help administrators examine low-level document properties so they can debug why certain searches provide certain results.
